To quickly note, I received this for a small fee from 0.8 Liter for my honest review, this post is not sponsored.
The Mask has three steps. 1) EVE Collagen Lifting Serum, 2) EVE Mask and 3) EVE Collagen Hyaluronic Cream.
Step 1) EVE Collagen Lifting Serum contains 8 ml (0.27 oz) and it has a gel-like fragrance.
The serum is a light clear gel, it absorbs pretty quickly.
2) EVE Mask is a dry, two-part mask.
The mask is a made of a plastic type material and it's in two parts but it dries down together.
3) EVE Collagen Hyaluronic Cream contains 2.5 ml (0.08 oz) and it has a basic skincare kind of scent.
The cream is a thick gel-cream hybrid which coats the skin with a thick layer of moisture.
It takes some effort to blend into the skin.
It really absorbs well into the skin and is extremely moisturizing and the effects last over 12 hours.
Recommended use is after cleansing, adjust skin with a toner and then apply a small amount of the serum (step 1), leave some for later. Next, attach the mask sheet by applying the top part and then the bottom part. The softer part should be attached to the skin and then apply the remainder of the serum over the mask. Wait for 30 minutes for the mask to dry out and then peel it off. Lastly apply the cream to skin overnight. After using, this mask is very different from others I've used, it's pretty unique but also kind of uncomfortable. The material that the mask sheet is made of is kind of rigid so it did have some issues around my eyes and digging into the skin around my eyes. The serum is interesting and very nourishing and moisturizing and the mask really sticks well to the skin over top of it. It did take about 30 minutes to totally dry out and it took some effort to peel it off. However, my skin looked even and moisturized after taking it off which I appreciated and I didn't see any irritation despite the mask being kind of uncomfortable. The cream is not the best I've ever used, but it's pretty nice and does the job of moisturizing pretty well. The whole thing overall doesn't have any super strong scents, so I think it's suitable for people sensitive to scent. But if you have sensitive skin, please use this at your own discretion, overall I'd recommend to people with dry skin and who are interested in using different kinds of masks.
What I like: the serum is very moisturizing and the mask sticks well to it and there's a lot of it too so it's quite nice. The ingredients are really nice and nourishing and the whole process is unique and does a great job of moisturizing my skin. I also just appreciate the uniqueness of the product. What I don't like: the mask is uncomfortable and rigid and kind of a process to peel it off after it dries. I'll continue to use the masks I have but it might not be something I invest in.
Pros:
Moisturizing
Hydrating
Nourishing
Unique mask
No strong fragrances
Nice ingredients
Cons:
Not very comfortable (mask part)
Difficult to remove (mask)
Would I buy again?
No
Rating: 7/10
